Pneumatic tire
Abstract
A pneumatic tire includes at least one carcass layer between bead portions on an inner side in a radial direction of sidewall portions on both sides of a tread portion extending in a circumferential direction and having an annular shape, and the carcass layer includes carcass cords formed of organic fiber cords obtained by intertwining a filament bundle of organic fibers. The carcass layer includes turn-up portions formed by being turned back at an end portion of the bead portions to an outer side in a tire width direction. The carcass cords have an elongation at break EB satisfying EB≥15%, a cap tread rubber compound of the tread portion has a 300% modulus MD satisfying 4 MPa≤MD≤13 MPa, and the elongation at break EB and the 300% modulus MD satisfy 600≤40×MD+20×EB (%)≤1300.
